OpenFreeHost has been deployed Phusion Passenger for a while. One of our honorable application is Birdnest and it is becoming popular day by day. To serve Birdnest traffics, the default parameter is not enough.

Due to TwitPic problems early in this week, I decided to find better way to support TwitPic in Birdnest and jibjib. In the past, Birdnest calls uploadAndPost which posts to Twitter immediately. Anyway, problem this week introduced me some error messages.

• 1001 - Invalid twitter username or password
• 1005 - Unknown error

There were something wrong in TwitPic and I cannot fix it myself. In addition, TwitPic likes to post in below format.

http://twitpic.com/url @reply text

That means I cannot reply by TwitPic. So it would be a great idea to post it to Twitter myself in Birdnest or jibjib

Birdnest 2 is coming. Anyway, I need to optimize bandwidth consumption NOW. So last night I created another branch for this quick diet. There are 3 changes in this new #birdnest.

1. All unnecessary HTTP response headers are removed, for example, status, x-runtime, etag, cache-control, pragma, set-cookie, vary and connection.
2. url field in user response is removed.
3. Link in source field is removed.

It should reduce bandwidth about 1000-2000 bytes.

Sorry for inconvenience. It seems jibjib must be released again. :) One version per day is too often? I don't think so. We need something usable. If it has problems, we are happy to get it fixed as fast as possible.
